Summary:Reported herein is an enantiodivergent synthesis of chiral biaryls by a chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation reaction. Upon treatment of biaryl lactols with aromatic amines and a Hantzsch ester in the presence of chiral phosphoric acid, dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) involving a reductive amination reaction proceeded smoothly to furnish both R and S isomers of chiral biaryls with excellent enantioselectivities by proper choice of hydroxyaniline derivative. This trend was observed in wide variety of substrates, and various chiral biphenyl and phenyl naphthyl adducts were synthesized with satisfactory enantioselectivities in enantiodivergent fashion. The enantiodivergent synthesis of synthetically challenging, chiral o‐tetrasubstituted biaryls were also accomplished, and suggests high synthetic potential of the present method. Divergierend: Bei der Titelreaktion führt die Behandlung von Biaryl‐Lactolen mit aromatischen Aminen und einem Hantzsch‐Ester in Gegenwart eines chiralen Phosphorsäurederivats zur dynamischen kinetischen Racematspaltung durch reduktive Aminierung. Je nach Wahl des Hydroxyanilinderivats sind sowohl die R‐ als auch die S‐Isomere der chiralen Biaryle zugänglich. M.S.=Molekularsieb.
